Discovery Groups for Women |
|
|
|
|
Groups for women of every race, religion, ideology and sexual preference who seek to commune with other women to expand their definition of Self, to heal from addiction, abuse, racism, sexism, to become more whole, and to develop a passion for all of life. The groups will use the healing concepts developed by Charlotte Kasl, Ph.D., as outlined in her book – Many Roads, One Journey. Dr. Kasl examines self-esteem, addiction and co-dependency in the context of internalized oppression. Her model is designed to empower women to find their own voices, sources of strength and spirituality. If you are interested, or just curious, please join us and see for yourself. The only requirement for membership is that you be a woman. Groups meet on Wednesday evenings from 7:00 - 8:30 p.m. For more information click here or call 757-564-0001. |
